from the upcoming album Oddisee "The Good Fight" (5/5)
https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/the-good-fight/id969829649

In a landscape overrun with abstract indulgence and shallow trend-chasers, the Prince George’s County, Maryland artist Oddisee has created 'The Good Fight', a record that reminds you that it’s music before it’s hip-hop. Due May 5th on Mello Music Group, it’s for the fans and for himself. It finds the musical heavyweight balancing between craft, career, and successfully growing into the world around him. Stream the first single, "That's Love".

Album Description:
Oddisee makes music that rattles in your bone marrow. It’s imbued with love, honesty, and selflessness. It’s virtuosic in its musicality, direct in its language, and infinitely relatable.
 
In a landscape overrun with abstract indulgence and shallowtrend-chasers, the Prince George’s County, Maryland artist has created “The Good Fight,” a record that reminds you that it’s music before it’s hip-hop. Released on Mello Music Group, it’s for the fans and for himself. It finds the musical heavyweight balancing between craft, career, and successfully growing into the world around him.
 
For Oddisee, “The Good Fight” is about living fully as a musician without succumbing to the traps of hedonism, avarice, and materialism. It’s about not selling out and shilling for a paycheck, while still being aware that this is a business requiring compromise and collaboration.
 
It’s music that yields an intangible feeling: the sacral sound of an organ whine, brass horns, or a cymbal crash. It’s not necessarily the syllables, but rather what they evoke. A song like “That’s Love” is more than a declaration; it’s a meditation on our capacity to love and the bonds binding us together. Ambition and greed war with our sense of propriety. “Contradiction’s Maze” offers a list of paradoxes we all face (“I want to tell the truth when it hurts/but when it comes to me, I want the blow softened.”)
 
Oddisee’s production simmers in its own orchestral gumbo. You sense he’s really a jazzman in different form, inhabiting the spirit of Roy Ayers and other past greats.  The Fader’s compared him to a musical MC Escher, calling hailing his “grandiose and symphonic sound” and “relevant relatable messages.” Pitchfork praised his “eclectic soulful boom-bap.”
 
“The Good Fight” acknowledges the stacked odds, but refuses to submit.
 
It’s both universal and personal. The child of a Sudanese immigrant highlights the rigors of his own upbringing: his pregnant mother working the register until she was about to burst, his pops’ shuttered diner that couldn’t survive Reaganomics—the one that Oddisee drives past every time he returns home, just to remind him how quickly the world can turn bad.
 
It’s these minor details that add into something major. It’s testament to the indelible nature of art: when you can turn what you love into something that lasts.


Oddisee - That's Love

Following the release of the leak single 'Suicide Doors', Skyzoo returns with the official first single off of Music For My Friends; "Luxury". The track, featuring Buffalo new comer Westside Gunn on the hook, is best described by Sky as "a New York trunk knocker". Sky further explains:

"The idea behind the record was to put together something that really felt like the city. Something that really felt like the NY that I know and grew up in. From the content to the beat, it feels like expensive cars driven by guys from down the block who figured out a way to get whatever they want and celebrate those realizations. That's how the city looked and felt to me growing up, and I wanted to build something like that for this generation that still tied into the album's overall theme of innocent ignorance and misguided desires".

Production wise, the song finds Skyzoo behind the boards for the first time, with coaching of course from his longtime collaborator !llmind. "I had this idea for what the song should be sonically, but I had trouble getting that from the producers I went to at the time. I decided to try to man the machine myself, but there was no way I was gonna be able to pull it off without my man !llmind and his genius talents playing Steve Kerr and coaching my efforts. I went to him with the idea, picked the drums, the loop, the change ups, etc, and he then helped orchestrate it and bring it to life". 

Additionally, the video for "Luxury" has been shot and is in the works for an early June release. 

Skyzoo's third solo album, "Music For My Friends", hits stores June 23rd via First Generation Rich Inc./Empire and can be pre-ordered here: http://smarturl.it/MFMF

Massachusetts native DJ Manipulator made some noise this year after supplying D.I.T.C. with two bangers on their latest LP, D.I.T.C. Studios, and he’s continuing his winning streak this year with a grimy new single, “2 Drums,” featuring rugged New York spitter, Conway The Machine.

As the track’s title implies, there’s more to “2 Drums” than a single presentation of sounds. That’s because Manipulator switches up the beat halfway through, providing listeners with a double-dose of slappers that’s likely to snap some necks. And if they don’t, he can rely on Conway to take on the role of a bruiser and cause some grave damage to anyone frontin’: “I’m the ni**a who you gotta watch how you speak to/ Break ni**as’ jaws, through a straw he gotta eat soup.”

“2 Drums” is but a mere sampling of what Manipulator has in store for Hip-Hop heads in the next few months. That’s because the track serves as the first single off his forthcoming debut album, 'Stranger Than Paradise,' which is set to drop in early ’17. Until then, you can keep “2 Drums” on repeat, but be careful: it may cause you to bare a permanent screw face.

“2 Drums” is now available through all major digital retailers and streaming platforms, via Backcourt Records.
